Nothing like feeling as if you’re 100 miles from everything and you’re actually 10 mins from everything. This unit was immaculate, beautifully equipped and perfect for an easy getaway. We will never stay anywhere else when visiting Brevard!

The cabins are in a great location for outdoor activities (biking, hiking, etc.) The finishings in the cabin are nice, as is the large covered back porch. The front porch is covered as well, making it good for getting muddy gear off out of the rain, and the mudroom part is convenient for storing bikes. The washer and dryer proved handy since our stay proved to be a rainy and muddy one, and the WiFi was nice for watching movies when rained in/in the evenings. We would stay again.

We loved our stay at Pilot Cove! Such a cute cabin community nestled up next to the Pisgah Forest. Wonderful location, close to everything, but far enough away to relax into nature. I could have sat on that back deck for days! Our cabin was perfectly equiped with everything we needed and was spotlessly clean. I wish we had been able to stay longer. Felt like we could move right in. We would definitely stay there again when we are in Brevard!

Cabin in the forest.

A very nice stay near Brevard and Pisgah Forest. The place was spacious and clean. Very well appointed. We enjoyed the secluded patio for coffee and evening drinks. Having a washer and dryer was very helpful since there is so much to do outdoors! It was a bit difficult to find. Look for The Hub on your GPS and then you will find the small sign near its parking lot.
